All students learning a new language need several inputs. The book and I cannot be the only sources. Duolingo and Rosetta Stone are two services both offered for free to all Richmond County students. However, how will students be able to practice independently in a noisy environment. A class set of headphones will give my students the independence to practice listening, speaking, reading, and writing in Spanish daily. Students will enter the classroom expecting to practice on their own during the first 10-15 minutes, and then we will all discuss what we've learned from each lesson. Our middle school is one of the recipients of the Verizon Innovative Learning grant where each student and teacher will receive Chromebooks; but guess what, no headphones! The headphones will further the technology initiatives occurring at LMS and offer the students taking Spanish the opportunity to engage with their learning in extensive way.
